1 act play for 15 minutes...

My first experience writing a play is not a pleasant one. The reason is that I struggle to come out with an idea to write the play. But, fortunately, I have a partner who I can brainstorm for ideas. Although we had combined our idea into a play, it is still hard for me to come out with the play. Our first draft that we had submitted to Dr. Edwin was a disaster! The comment that we got back was somehow heartbreaking and demoralizing. However, we had come up with a slightly different idea to the play. This time, we had a better understanding of how to write a play and it was slightly easier. We have the power to create the character, to come up with the plot and also the theme of the story. At the end of the day, writing a play is fun, but is not for the faint hearted!
